[Bem, Greg]

While we have a procedure in place that states 72 hours, it's actually a week because that's how separated our curbside appointments are.

We quarantine all returned books for a week. Our reserves check out for a week and then quarantine for a week when returned. Our main collections usually check out for 3 weeks and then quarantine for a week when returned.

Hi Dawn,
We circulate all materials quarterly. If an item is returned early, it is quarantined for 72 hours.

Thanks!

Dear Colleagues,

Me again.

How long are you quarantining returned materials? We have been quarantining for 3 days based (somewhat) on info about COVID-19 from the Realm Project, but the Governor now says minimum 24 hours.

Thanks for your thoughts.

Dawn
